Over the years Thane presented several lessons on this prayer so essential to the Christian faith. In doing so he was re-interpreting traditional - perhaps a little tired with age - lines in a way that creates an invocation of the timeless and immortal: not in a far-away heaven but right here, right now.

The online listening and dialogue group - a group of veteran students meeting in a group dynamics setting to review archive materials - took the lesson on as a project and found it very compelling. After a lot of tender loving care spiffing up the audio it is now published on the website and available for listening.
